I went to Pittsboro and Sanford in North Carolina to hunt for hidden treasures this weekend. This post features a few of my lucky finds. Those two antique brass candle holders were scored for $5 each. I know-lucky me?? You know brass/gold is so hot right now too!! They are also in very good condition too; a few nicks here and there but nothing a little polishing can’t fix. Plus, nicks add character.

I scored this vintage orange mushroom stool for $25; currently in Baby Ian’s nursery. However, I am thinking of ‘borrowing’ it for myself. I just love it! How was your weekend? Did anyone go thrifting? Blessings and happy Monday my friends. XX
Amazing finds, darling!
ReplyDeleteLove the candlesticks!

i swear u get THE best stuff - i forgot to get back to u over the weekend - but i scored a few thrift finds (navajo blanket, top from Hawaii, and a vintage caftan) - then well we won't get into the trouble i got myself in at HomeGoods - i need to buy stock in that place!!!! - i'm DYING over the mushroom! ...
ReplyDeleteps - to my defense it's so darn cold here i don't wanna go in and out of the car thrifting - i uncovered a few goldmines from friends but haven't been there to actually see for myself!
Lucky you! The candlesticks are gorgeous! I could use a good thrifting day!

Well done you! I see a similar shape between the footstool and the candlesticks, actually, or is that just me? They are both gorgeous - and such wonderful curvaceous shapes. Isn't it a fun thrill to find things second hand? So much more of a "score" sensation than purchasing new things. x
ReplyDeletegah, you find the best stuff! Everything midcentury in my area is SO overpriced.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me, or do a lot of bloggers live in SC? That area has great treasures and bloggers who want to torture us with it. I'm jealous of the candlesticks. Don't take Ian's mushroom. It is soooo cute the way you have it in the picture.
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing finds in your thrifting - love the brass candlesticks!!
ReplyDeleteThe candlesticks are a fun thrifting find!
ReplyDeleteThis aint fair lady. Those thrift finds are hella awesome. I so need those candlesticks for a project. sigh. major jealous but happy for you. p.s Linda from My Crafty Home Life is cheating on my son with yours! Battle of the baby cuties. It's on!
ReplyDeleteTHAT ORANGE MUSHROOM is perfect for your décor my friend! No thrift finds for me,but I do have a splendid pair of crystal sconces I found months ago waiting to be hung..that will give me a shot in the arm for decorating before spring! HAVE FUN! Anita
